Abstract
Constant live-weight has been used as criterion in measuring the maintenance
requirement of adult sheep during winter. It has been found that
an animal weighing 100 lb. requires 2.106 lb. of a grass hay, containing
1622 Calories of metabolizable energy, to maintain its weight at an approximately
constant level.
